rust: init: Add functions to create array initializers

Add two functions `pin_init_array_from_fn` and `init_array_from_fn` that
take a function that generates initializers for `T` from usize, the added
functions then return an initializer for `[T; N]` where every element is
initialized by an element returned from the generator function.
